In this episode of Fic Clique, your hosts discuss "give me a tempest," by Klavier (SVT RPF). 

Welcome to the start of a brand new series here on the pod: For Your Consideration! Similar to our Fandom Classic episodes, this series aims to take a look at one fic in a fandom that we think has the makings of a Fandom Classic without quite having obtained that status yet. 

We could not have picked a better fic to kickstart this new series, as this delight of a romcom premise takes us through a story rich with impressive setting work, fantastic friendships, and dynamic protagonists living authentic human experiences. 

Alternate titles include: "Be Gay Do Crimes Commit Marriage Fraud," and "Oops! In Love with My Fake Husband"

This episode is packed with journeys of all kinds, from growth & self discovery to apocalyptic roadtrips to beastly fairytale woods. Watch your step - it's a twisting and unfamiliar path out there. 

In this episode of Fic Clique, your hosts discuss "Chapter 7.5," by ionthesparrow (Murderbot Diaries) @18:25, "Psychopompeii," by Eastling (Ancient Pompeii Graffiti) @44:00, and "...and a partridge in a pear tree," by strangehunger (The Locked Tomb) @1:06:30. 

Take a break from the weight of the world with these three lovely fics, and the ensuing discussions on otherness, marks of human existence, and laugh-out-loud humorous prose. 

In this episode of Fic Clique, your hosts discuss "bad coffee & lemon bars," by abillionstars (Haikyuu) @11:00, "Strange Bedfellows," by orphan_account & ravenclawsquill (Harry Potter) @36:25, and "obliged to defend every love, every ending," by shinealightonme (Raven Cycle) @1:03:26.

For such an auspicious episode number, we thought of a really nice (haha, wink) theme for you all. Whether or not our discussions actually pertain to it, however, is perhaps up for debate. Still, we hope you enjoy the themes of second chances, finding unspoken ways to voice your needs, and good fictional therapists.
